Saturday, December 8, 2018is our Annual General Meeting. The afternoon meeting will be followed by The 12 Pints of Christmas Pub Crawl. Details TBD, but you know it will be festive fun time!

Regarding the AGM, if you are interested in running for a position on the executive, job descriptions and a list of who is on the exec currently can be found here. All positions must be re-elected, so if you think you can do a better job than, say, Caroline at communications, feel free to run against her.

Even if you don’t think you are ready to take on a role full time, chat with the people currently in those positions. Maybe they are keen to do a year of on-boarding with you, so that you feel ready to take over the position next year. We’re all volunteers, so any help is always appreciated.

See you on November 17 at the Pint for the Awards Banquet,

The Nomads Exec

Juniors will host their awards ceremony from 6:00–7:00 p.m., to be followed by a senior cocktail hour from 7:00–8:00 p.m., after which everyone eats together at 8:00 p.m. The event becomes 19+ at 9:30 p.m.

Early bird tickets are $70; prices will jump to $90 on Friday, November 9. Adult tickets include dinner and three drinks (two drink tickets and wine at the tables).

The first 25 Nomads to purchase tickets will be entered into a draw for a prize!

Hello, my name is William Daniel and I am a member of the u18 Rugby Ontario boys representative team. Training and playing all summer against teams from the UK and the US has led to the conclusion of our season. We head on a tour to one of the homelands of Rugby IRELAND!!!!! Yes we are heading to IRELAND to play 3 of the best provincial and respective club teams in the country we leave August 9th and return August 19 where after there will be Canada selections for the u18 Mens team. This tour is costing each player a huge price tag of $3550 !!!!! I currently have only $525 left to pay off !!!

With your donations you can help me achieve my goal any and everything helps so Thankyouu very much !!!

I currently don’t have my go fund me account ready right now and the funds are due this Wednesday so I’m in a rush Thankyou again !!

Some of these athletes have started GoFundMe pages to help finance the costs of this honour. As you all know, we operate within a pay-to-play representative model in Canadian Rugby and this can create challenges. If you wish to support these young Nomads, please go here and give generously;

The Nomads Junior club remain supportive of all player efforts to raise funds in order to represent themselves, their families and our club at provincial and national level. At this current time, we commit to sharing and advertising all funding pages set up by players or players’ families. Going forward, we hope to announce exciting evolutionary developments in this space as the junior club grows and evolves its role in the lives of our fabulous young athletes. After all, Better Never Stops.

Go Nomads

Mark, Ross and the Nomads Juniors executive.
